Critical Acclaim

D 95DecanterOpulent and inviting aromatics, with pretty rose petal, heady sandalwood and plush blueberry on the nose, while the palate is laced with lush plum, a zippy acidity and velvety smooth tannins.WW 91Wilfred Wong of Wine.comCOMMENTARY: The 2021 Amalaya Malbec is bright and active on the palate. TASTING NOTES: This wine exhibits aromas and flavors of black fruits, licorice, and dried earth. Enjoy with grilled short ribs.

A little herbal but savory on the palate with dense, nicely chewy tannins.RP 90Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

The dark red 2021 Malbec is young, primary and fresh, with ripe fruit and nice balance. It is varietal and has notes of violets and small berries and a touch of herbs. It’s medium-bodied with medium ripeness and moderate alcohol, 13.9%. In reality, it’s not 100% Malbec, as it contains 10% Tannat and 5% Petit Verdot. A serious red for very little money.
